Need mines for IJN subs

keltos01 · 06-05-08, 04:06 PM

My next project beyond the Sen Toku would be an IJN minelaying sub, like the KRS which had 4 tubes, 12 torpedoes and 42 mines:

But I need someone to make mines ! I know they had the shape of a torpedo, that they used german accoustic mines as well (delivered from Germany) but how could we implement them in game ?

In "Shells of fury" subs can lay mines...

Keltos you should make your other subs ready first ;-)

Mines are impossible without SDK.
you have the following controllers:
-torpedo
-shell
-bubble generators
-DCs

none of this are fitting

It sure as heck looks like Nautilus42's first ai jap sub, the one I used to make the first playable jap sub ! so at least now I know who made it ! now I know why the tower was named jap_sub_tower !

btw the download is of the tower only since it uses a typ IX hull.

What really interrests me is the british sub : the japs based some of their designs from those L class boats, the germans captured one in the skattegat too, so why not ?

"experimental Player drivable British Sub V5
replaces the stock type IIA"

same goes : typ II hull, new tower.

"experimental Player drivable American Sub V1
replaces the stock type 7B"

ANd are those mines ?????

he says :"COVERSION OF THE TYPE II G7E TORPEDOE TO A STATIONARY MINE V2
ONCE LAUNCHED REMAINS STATIONARY WHERE YOU LEFT IT

this now uses the naval mine model file for the mine
(not realistic coming out of a torp tube but fun) "

I think if we convert them we could then add more torpedoes in the bunker, like 42 more for the KRS plus the 14 torpedoes (56 spaces total) and load 42 mines, that would be fun ! do they sink ships in SH3 ????

very interresting though ! wonder why I didn't find this site in my web search ??

I actually worked a little on mines, a Torpedo running at 0.00000000000000001 knots, It doesn't really work (Doesn't detonate :S), Maybe I was just doing something wrong (Don't expect it to ever actually float around like a normal drifting mine though)

EDIT: AVATAR FROM HELL!

Could be useful for putting the plug on some big harbor

EDIT: Danger's over...

would you be credited for the sinking ? I think it would be nice to be able to set mines, it just adds to the game, did Fleet boats use mines ? I know french boats did..
